Pirate's Freedom

It's almost night, and the sky has darkened. From a long distance away, you can still see the faint light in the direction of the town, allowing you to outline the excitement there in your mind.

However, none of the people present had any intention of joining in the fun. The big snake who disappeared in the Flower Capital appeared here quietly, with only two tribesmen, Heitan Muchan and Heitan Chanmaru, beside him.

"...At the agreed time and place, there is no one here. Old lady, is there something wrong with the person you contacted, or-"

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the expression of the big snake could not be seen clearly. Only his extremely gloomy voice could be heard in the darkness.

"They think I have no value now?"

Before the anxious Hei Tan Mu Chan could reply, a voice came from the darkness.

"Of course not, General Orochi, you must have realized that you still have a lot of useless chips~"

Wearing a white suit and a white mask with missing eyes, [Don't Look] Shi Shiran approached from the darkness, his voice rose and he said happily.

"First of all, I feel honored for your choice, General Orochi. I... no, on behalf of the World Government, I will serve you wholeheartedly until the deal is concluded."

The wind was blowing and the clouds were moving. Under the dim moonlight, Heitan Chanwan's index and middle fingers were already intertwined. [Without looking], he stopped in front of the barrier at the right time and continued.

"However, before everything begins, it is necessary for me to conduct a small evaluation in order to have a rough judgment on the depth of the cooperation between the two parties."

At this point, [Bukan] slowed down his voice and considered his words, "Although I have no prejudice against the traditional art of [Wano Country], as a general, you have to show your artistic qualities in public, Is there something unspeakable..."

"No need to put it so tactfully!" Since the arrival of [Don't See], Orochi did not speak immediately, but suddenly interrupted him, "Rao wants to see me make a fool of myself, so I will make a big fool of myself to him. ! If he wants one, I will give him ten! In the face of life, dignity is not worth mentioning!"

Standing up straight, with a ferocious brow, Orochi's voice was decisive, "I have never forgotten my origins. When I sit on the throne of a general, I have to hold on to the things I picked up? Is this what a fool would do? The idea! It’s only thanks to this country full of idiots that I’m in this position.”

Having said this, Orochi took a few steps forward, pressed his hands on the [barrier], leaned forward, and stared into [Binding]'s eyes, "Listen! I can give you whatever you want, in this country I don’t care about anything! I sat on the throne of general just to destroy this country! For revenge!!”

"In this case--"

The ferocious expression of the big snake was right in front of him. [Not looking] He raised and lowered his hand. His shoulders were shaking slightly, and he was trying hard to suppress something, and his voice was a little strange.

"I have no problem, let everything start quickly~!"

……

In the center of the Flower City, huge pines and cypresses stand here, and the abundant water even forms waterfalls flowing down from the trees——

With its carved beams and painted buildings, cornices and brackets, the exquisite architecture of [Orochi City] is no longer located in the bend of huge pines and cypresses, surrounded by curved tree trunks.

The inside of the tree has also been hollowed out, and the tower and arch bridge are connected to the tree. Tata Tot stands in the corner of the tower.

"If you become a pile of SHIT, no one will dare to step on your head."

From the beginning to now, Tata Tote said to himself as he watched all of Orochi's performances inconspicuously.

"Orochi is really a powerful practitioner of this sentence. Now that he asks me to kill him, I really can't do it."

The carnival below was still going on, and Tata Tot turned around. A man wearing straight pants and a civilian look was soaked in sweat, but he still stood there motionless.

"If I remember correctly, you should be the chief herald of Kozuki Sukiyaki. Although you have never been reused again, you have survived safely under Orochi's rule."

In front of him was a man named Yamada who wore sunglasses, a mustache, and curly hair. Tata Tot could tell from many details that he was not as scared as he appeared.

"All the officials have fled. Only you stayed, and you came to me directly and said you wanted to do something for me, so I would like to ask -"

Tata Tot's gaze seemed to have a certain weight, which made the person in front of him bend down slightly, and a curious voice continued to sound in front of him.

"Are you going to endure the humiliation and endure the hardship, or are you trying to gain wealth and wealth through danger?"

For a moment, the only sound was the whistling wind on the tower. After a while, Yamada raised his head, and a cautious voice reached Tata Tot's ears.

"...Lord Rao, I don't have any bad intentions. I just follow Sukiyaki-sama's instructions before his death and cannot leave his post without permission."

"So, it seems you don't know...forget it," Tata Tot was not interested in getting to the bottom of it, let alone proving anything, and ordered directly.

"Yamada, the first thing is to gather all the chefs in this city. I will go directly to the kitchen to meet them."

Yamada was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted and walked quickly to the front, "Lord Rao, let me come down and guide you."

……

In the corridors extending in all directions, Yamada was twisting and turning, and Tata Tote followed him leisurely, thinking about his own things in his mind.

Looking for Mount Tengu Feite and exploring the secrets of the [Black Sword] was not just a whim for Tata Tot. He had this idea long before arriving in [Wano Country].

The reason is due to Charlotte Lingling's unreasonably high defense. [Steel Balloon] is really eye-opening - according to Tata Tot's estimation, even if he doesn't take into account the marginal effect. The problem is, consuming most of the life fluctuations to temporarily strengthen one's physique will never reach the level of Charlotte Lingling.

He is also a top powerhouse. Kaido has a big cross on his body. Whitebeard will be stabbed in the back by his [son]. Shanks is even missing an arm. Looking at it this way, among the four emperors, he has never been injured. Charlotte Lingling, on the other hand, seems quite strange.

Thinking again that once the Carmelite nun's photo is shattered, the stimulated Charlotte Lingling's defense will drop off a cliff. This kind of mental state directly affects the physical strength, and there is really no way for Tata Tote to avoid it. Some kind of association——

Isn’t there? [Undoubtedly] means being powerful. Isn't domineering, a force that is indistinguishable from breath, momentum, and intimidation, also seriously affected by mental state?

Whether it's [Moonlight] Moria or [Sand Crocodile] Crocodile, or a series of theatrical BOSSs such as [Golden Lion] Shiji, bosses who used to have a good reputation and a powerful character, It was not because of mental problems such as losing ambition or wavering self-confidence that his strength declined significantly, and he finally fell to the miserable ending of being beaten by Luffy.

From this perspective, Tata Tot seriously doubted that the reason why Charlotte Lingling was so gifted was actually not because of any physical differences, but more like some kind of innate abnormality in her mental structure that made her Armed Haki has new forms that are different from hardening, winding, external release and internal destruction. This is what Tata Tot is most interested in.
